A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 179

"Yes." Antony smiles and says with a slightly regretful tone, "She was a very good woman. If I was there earlier, then..."

Perhaps it is too sad for him, so he doesn't say anything else.

Antony hands the sapphire ring to Lily and says, "Take this. It's useless for me to keep it here."

"I can't take it." Lily steps back. She likes Louis, but it is unknown if their relationship will develop, and the gift is too precious. "You should give it to President Smith."

"Alas, Louis is so pitiful." Antony blames himself. "No one liked him since he was young, and he was not liked even when he grew up. I failed him as a father."

Lily's mouth twitches. "How could it be? President Smith is so outstanding, there are many women having feelings for him."

"Since that's the case, take it." Antony stuffs the sapphire ring into her hand and says, "I entrust Louis to you. Now my head hurts."

Antony rubs his temples and says, "I'm going to take a rest. You guys may go. Drop by and have a meal when it is convenient for you."

Lily is persuaded by Antony. When she reacts, she has left the study. She looks at the sapphire ring in her hand speechlessly.

She is caught off guard by the sentimental persuasion.

Louis approaches her in his wheelchair and asks, "What did my dad say to you?"

"Nothing." Lily puts her hand behind her back. "He told me to come back for meal when we were free," she says calmly.

"Is that so?" The man raises his eyebrows with disbelief. "Nothing else?"

"No."

Hearing Lily say this, Louis does not ask anything else. Lily goes downstairs behind him while hesitating whether to give the ring to Louis. But then, she puts it into her bag.

It is better not to give it to him now, so as not to arouse the pain in his heart.

On the way back, Lily looks at the scenery that flashes past the window. Thinking about the events from last night to this morning, her excitement is no less than that of riding a roller coaster. It is as if she is in a dream.

Thinking of something, she turns to look at Louis and says, "President Smith, did you discuss it with Jason in advance? Could it be that you came up with this plan last night?"

"No."

Lily is surprised. "Then why did Jason..."

Jason’s tone is calm and natural when he says that. Lily doesn't believe the fact that Louis hasn't contacted him beforehand.

"Don't you know why?" Louis glances at her and says, "He still likes you."

Lily purses her lips.

Last time at the Smith Group, he also spoke for her.

Seeing that Lily is lost in thought, Louis frowns and feels very uncomfortable. He leans over and says, "What's wrong, Miss Lily? Do you want to get back together with him?"

"No." They are too close, and she feels a little uneasy as leans back. "I'm not that kind of woman. It's just that he helped me. At least, I should say thank you."

Louis' tone is softer. "No need, I will say it for you."

Lily wants to say something, but suddenly has a cramp in the abdomen. She bends down and her head is covered in sweat.

"What's the matter?"

"Dysmenorrhea."

Louis remembers that she was like this during the last menstruation. He pulls her over and makes her lean on his shoulder, and then he instructs the driver to find a pharmacy to buy ibuprofen.

"President Smith, there's no need..."

Lily's face turns red as she struggles to get up, but Louis holds her shoulder and says in an irresistible tone, "Lean on, don't move."

He also wraps the thin blanket on his lap around her waist.

Lily does not move again and leans against his broad shoulders. She suddenly feels less pain in her abdomen.

Actually, Louis looks aloof, but actually, he is considerate.

After eating the ibuprofen, Lily becomes lively again. She doesn't want to go to the grocery store because of the hot weather, so she buys ingredients as well as a big watermelon online.
